Changes

The First week of December brought some big changes for my dear husband and for many others. For the last eight and a half years Allyn has served as the Stake President of the Sandstone Stake of our church. It has been such an amazing blessing for our whole family. He loved all of the people he had the pleasure to work with and to serve. So many incredible friendships were made, and experiences that will always be cherished. All of the amazing people serving in our stake truly gave with all their hearts and blessed so many lives.  The Hyers hosted a wonderful High Counsel Christmas party at their home. We had a great time, and yet it was a little sad knowing it would be the last time this group would serve together in this same way. Our family is so grateful for all of the special experiences and blessings that the past 8 1/2 years have brought. We are so blessed. 
I love the gospel and the closeness that serving together in the church brings.
 
 

On Sunday Elder Ellis released Allyn, Dodd and Robert from serving in the Stake Presidency. Bitter/sweet for sure...and lots of adjustments.

We support our new Stake Presidency and we are excited for our new Las Vegas Stake. 
There are so many wonderful people, who love the Lord with all their hearts, and serve and give so freely.
And after almost 14 years, my husband can sit with me at church:)
